First JUNO Award for Elinor Frey!

Internationally acclaimed cellist Elinor Frey had just completed her successful tour in Australia (★★★★½ “The audience erupted into great applause.” – Sydney Arts Guide) and received a JUNO Award for her album Early Italian Cello Concertos (Analekta) released with Rosa Barocca, conducted by Claude Lapalme. Congratulations!

“ Virtuosity abounds in these concertos… Frey highlights these works’ expressiveness as well as their beauty and fireworks. Her sense of unity and proportion add flow to the highly ornamented Larghetto of Tartini’s Concerto in A Major. She joins the first movement of the Leo concerto in measured, noble flourishes like an opera seria protagonist coming onstage for their entrance aria. ” – Early Music America
